I can no longer say that I only know how to quilt. I now know how to make one bag, which I hope will translate to other bags and patterns. I finally finished up the last bag that I was working on (I made 5 total) last night and now I get to share my creation. I'm only showing one of the bags since the other 4 are Christmas gifts and I don't want to completely ruin the surprise.
I learned how to make the Mail Sack from
Pink Chalk Studio. I made a few alterations to the pattern, like having a single piece of fabric for the exterior and adjusting an inside pocket to compensate for a shortage in the interior fabric. Overall, I think these bags turned out well and I can't wait to give them away from Christmas!
Oh I love your mail sack! You did a great job on it!
ReplyDeleteAdorable bag! Your Christmas giftees are sure lucky.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great bag! I wish I was on your Christmas list!! :-)
ReplyDeleteLooks great! All you need now is a coin purse/wallet!
ReplyDeleteLove your fabric choices here! So pretty. Love me a good chevron print. Great job on branching out!!!
ReplyDeleteI just love that yellow chevron with the interior fabric, Janet! I'm glad I got to see it in person. They're going to make great gifts!

this looks like a wonderful bag to me, the lining made with pretty fabric is much nicer to have than an ordinary plain lining, I am sure they will be well loved when received at Christmas, will not hop over to the link as I need one of these!
ReplyDeletegreat bags--I too want on your Christmas list!
